Hi yummy mummies! I'm 37wks+2 a past 2days baby hasn't been as active, Is it running out of room? As shifts rather than kicks!

Hi. I'm the same on timeline and baby is definitely less aggressive with movement for me...but crucially it is still sticking to its expected routine. When I mentioned to midwife she told me to call them with any changes that didn't feel right. You're probably fine but may be worth calling the midwife office just to make sure they don't need to check you both over. . Best of luck over next few weeks x

Thank u for the reassurance, I've an appt 2mor for monitoring! I've been on piriton for a rash so wondering if that's chilled baby out too!

Agreed wholeheartedly - call your midwife. Any changes should be reported so that your midwife can assess whether you need further checks. Much better to err on the side of caution.

I am 36 + 6 and have exactly the same thing - baby has been squirming around a fair bit but not many kicks. They just don't have much space any more. Always best to check with you rmw if you're worried though - they're used to it and can give you some ressaurance. I hope everything is good with your appointment tomorrow x
